#107 of 152 Re: My leaky VW EOS [jobie3] by koolkat4 Mar 26, 2009 (8:42 am)
Replying to: jobie3 (Mar 26, 2009 7:14 am) I think all VW EOS should be recalled as lemons! I had the seals replaced along with every thing else in the car - it was practically rebuilt. Finally after getting a lemon law attorney VW agreed that it was indeed a lemon and replaced my 2007 with a 2009. Guess what - after having the car one week it wouldn't start. This new car needed a new starter! You better believe I will never buy another VW as long as I live. Replies to this message: jobie3 (Mar 30, 2009 10:43 pm)

Replying to: koolkat4 (Mar 26, 2009 8:42 am) I totally agree with you KoolKat4, VW should recall as they are aware of this problem... I did actually send an mail to VW Germany, do you think I got a reply...NOOOOOOOO   Keep the faith..   A+

Replying to: koolkat4 (Mar 31, 2008 5:36 pm) Koolkat, I would really like to talk to you.... I am pretty much in the same situation as you. I seem to be have ALL the quirky problems everyone else is INCLUDING the leaks. My Lemon Law case is set for 5/5.

My EOS went back to the VW garage (again for the 8th time) so that they could now replace all the seals. They kept the Car for nearly 2 months, 10 days after getting the Car back Guess what happened....A WATER LEAK... Not surprised really.. The funny thing is that after getting the Car back, I got an mail from the main VW Importer wishing me many happy driving days... My VW dealer is now negotiating with VW Germany & the main Importer to replace the Car..(Should I hold my breath)..!! Will up-date once VW Germany have come back to me.   A+

Replying to: gmcmike22 (Mar 07, 2009 11:16 am) Is the water seal problem a known fact for the 2009 models also, or did they fix it? Replies to this message: jgjiffy (May 10, 2009 6:31 pm)

Replying to: jill15 (May 10, 2009 5:11 pm) I just had my LEMON law hearing on mine (a 2007) and a friend of mine has a 2009 that IS leaking too. It's a sweet ride, but it's riddled with problems.

as long as the cars under 4years / 50k miles. take it to the dealership. this is a known problem with tons of bulletins. it could be 1 of 6 or 7 diff. things. they'll need to seal the sunroof drains, replace the header seal, if the new seal leaks, they need to seal it on the front, not just the bottom. if you hose off the car you can watch the water run over the header seal (the black seal where the top meets the windshield) and under it. this is how the water gets in. it follows the header beam to the a-pillar and comes out and drips on the drivers left knee or the passengers right knee. It used to be sunroof drains, but it seems to be more of a header seal issue now. any vw dealer should be well aware of this issue. Replies to this message: jgjiffy (Jun 09, 2009 6:17 pm)

Replying to: thevwdude (Jun 09, 2009 6:03 pm) 4 years Schmor years....I won my Lemon Law Case against VW, and they tried to screw me out of what I had coming...I ended up with 5X their best offer before arbitration. And they never once would admit that others were having this same problem.
#115 of 152 VW EOS water leaks. by mikeh9 Jun 10, 2009 (2:00 am)
Once you start getting water leaks or electrical problems with a car, get rid of it. I had a late 2007 EOS from new that had to be returned to the dealer four times in 7 months for water leaks that used to flood the interior of the car. After the third time I threatened that I would not keep the car if it happened again. When it started leaking again I returned to the dealer and insisted that I receive full compensation or an equivalent priced car of my choice - but not an EOS. Within three weeks we both reached an agreement and the EOS was replaced with a fully spec,d Golf Estate Sportline. I have now had this car for 12 months with absolutely no problems. If you make enough fuss you can get your way but avoid replacing an EOS with an EOS. Replies to this message: jobie3 (Jun 21, 2009 11:58 pm) cadd2233 (Jul 26, 2009 8:34 pm)

Replying to: mikeh9 (Jun 10, 2009 2:00 am) Basically did the same as you, stood my ground and after a long battle, VW have exchanged my EOS for a new car of my choice.. Replies to this message: cadd2233 (Jul 26, 2009 8:34 pm)
